The project
A single-family house in a beautiful location with a view of the foothills of the Alps in Tafers, completely prefabricated in timber frame construction.

The construction method
The EFH was completely prefabricated in timber frame construction. The flat roof consists of a beam layer, which has a span of 7m and is weighted with gravel. The ground floor/ground floor ceiling has a span of 6m and is designed as a box girder. The ceilings are planked at the bottom with a visible three-layer slab, which forms the finished ceiling at the same time. The exterior walls consist of a timber frame wall planked on both sides and clad on the outside with open larch sheathing. In the interior, Fermacell panels are installed, which were then plastered white.

The challenge
The challenge lay in the large spans of the ceilings, which are extremely sensitive to vibrations. In the area of one bay window, no support could be installed in the corner of the building. Therefore, the loads were transferred to the columns via a large wooden beam that was installed in the wall on the upper floor. To further complicate matters, only a few walls were available to brace the building, so the wind loads were transferred via clearly defined wall plates.
